<p>Hello,</p>
<p>Having been recently nominated for the Fulbright Foreign Student Grant, I am planning to undertake a Ph.D. in Human and Community Development at a university in the Chicago region (ie: top-mid ranking unis - Uni. of Chicago, Northwestern, DePaul Uni, Uni of Illinois at Chicago).</p>
<p>In addition to my degrees in Psychology from the University of Birmingham, United Kingdom and the University of Geneva, Switzerland, I hold various international diplomas of direct relevance to the following topics: adolescent sexual, reproductive and mental health as well as gender studies.</p>
<p>I have six years experience working in the public health field with international orgs (WHO) and NGOs both in Europe and Mexico. </p>
<p>QUESTION 1: Given the above, I am curious to know whether my chances of entering into grad school will be diminished by low GRE scores (410V and 470Q - Analytical 4.0). </p>
<p>QUESTION 2: I would like to know if there are any good lower-ranked universitites where I could undertake a Ph.D. in the abovementioned area.</p>
<p>Thanks for your thoughts and suggestions</p>
